Rock band struggles to survive. Rock band hits big time. Rock band struggles with sex-drugs-conflict. Band members break up and go solo. Band reunites.

In many ways, it's an old story. But the announcement Tuesday that Van Halen was reuniting and going on tour was still a shocker.

As break-ups go, David Lee Roth's departure from the 80's rock supergroup was epic, the kind of fracture you'd think would never be repaired. Frankly, I'm fired up to see these hard-rockers make their return, appearing on stage in Portland on December 1st at the Rose Garden.

Go ahead and jump!
